Space-time Traveler Chapter 4: Hourglass of Time 4


Night fell.

Su Ziyu is sitting on the stone steps at the door looking at the stars. Recently, I don't know why he always remembers some things before, and he misses the leisurely life on earth even more. In the past two days, he felt a little change in the attitude of other people in the village towards him. This is an unfriendly change. Ordinary people may not feel it, but it is for the Suzi fish who has been sent under the fence since childhood. Quite obvious. I have to mention his past here. Su Ziyu should have had a happy family and a good childhood, but his father was unwilling to live up to the point and became addicted to the **** drug, and in the end everything became fragmented.

I can't remember many things from my childhood.

Su Ziyu has been fostered in his uncle's house since he was five or six years old. His childhood life was not very good, because the uncle himself has a son and a daughter, and family conditions can only be said to be very ordinary. In the beginning, Su Ziyu had a very bad life, because the elder mother was very realistic and disliked him very much, thinking that her uncle had put a big burden on her family. But fortunately, Su Ziyu was very smart and sensible since he was a child. He knew how to adapt to the environment instead of waiting for the environment to adapt to him. In this case, he started to help the family do some housework within his power since he was six or seven years old, and he changed the view of the whole family members on him bit by bit.

The attitude of my sister and younger brother towards him has become much more friendly. They no longer think that he is an enemy who will take away the love of his parents. The eldest aunt treats him a lot better, at least knowing that he is a good child to support.

It wasn't until Su Ziyu started to go to school that his childhood became much better.

The reason is simple.

He can read books and learn better than other children, and his grades are basically among the best. Knowing to read is the best amulet for a child like him who has no parental protection. Because he can read, he will not be bullied at school. Even the person who scolds him a "wild boy", as long as he tells the teacher with a crying face, the teacher will teach the person to call the parent by the way. Because of reading, the eldest aunt’s attitude towards him became better and better, thinking that this was a promising child in the future, and no longer regarded him as a burden, and later even treated him better than her own son. Su Ziyu was in eight. When I was 10 years old, he said, "I will definitely study hard, and I will definitely repay you if I have a future." He later said this sentence twice, once in high school and once in college.

How helpless it is to let a young child say the rewards, but he really has no other way.

For a weak child, reading is his most beneficial protection.

In that era, the proportion of children dropping out of school in rural areas was quite large. Su Ziyu never bothered about school fees. After his sister and brother didn't like to read much, he became the hope of the whole family. He had a good time in high school because he could study. There were a lot of **** in the school at that time. It was normal for adolescents to fight privately because of trivial things. After entering junior high school, the teacher could no longer be his umbrella. He was more ruthless than others when he studied and fought, and he chose some ruthless places to start. After one or two fights in private, no one dared to bully him anymore.

Faced with a child in the rebellious period, he must learn to protect himself.

Su Ziyu made a smooth transition all the way to college. He was admitted to a pretty good university, Fudan University.

After the end of high school life, Su Ziyu spent a period of time moving bricks on the construction site, mainly to earn some living expenses, because the tuition has already brought a great burden to the uncle’s family. The construction site is a good place, as long as you work hard, you can get the money, and there are no requirements, let alone wage arrears, and you can exercise by the way.

In college, he is truly independent. He doesn’t need to be careful to please people around him, he no longer needs the care of his uncle, he no longer needs the protection of teachers, and he no longer needs to look at people’s faces in life. He works and studies while looking. In the future, I finally studied computer science, but my job after graduation was to make mobile games. At that time, it happened to usher in the explosive period of mobile games. Basically, as long as he did a good job, he would have tens of millions of monthly sales. He successfully entered the management class a few years after graduation and entered the ranks of the annual salary of one million. , It can be regarded as a little bit of achievement.

During this period, Su Ziyu also talked about love several times, separated and combined, but failed to get to the end, he may be a little lonely in nature, a little not knowing how to love someone.

After work, he helped the family rebuild the house. The cousin later married his wife and he helped to buy the house in the city. Originally, Su Ziyu wanted to pay directly to the cousin, so he should repay the uncle and their kindness. . But the uncle stopped him. The man who was often scolded by his wife shook his head and refused, insisting that he only give a down payment, and his cousin would return the down payment to him in the future. This seldom-spoken man has his own persistence, just like Su Ziyu who does not owe favors and must repay him. Since then, he has settled in Shanghai and later raised a very fat orange cat.

Su Ziyu doesn't have much material needs, so when he has money, he likes to travel and collect some weird collections until he buys a golden hourglass that is said to be from Egypt from an Erdao dealer.

Then he was miserable.

"Oh. I don't know what happened to my fat orange!" Su Ziyu sighed as he looked at the night sky.

Uncles and the others don’t have to worry. The cousins ​​and cousins ​​are all by their side. There are villas in the country and small buildings in the city. After Su Ziyu makes money, he arranges them properly. They also bought endowment insurance. Repay them for their nurturing grace. Since living independently, he basically went back to take a look at the Chinese New Year, and there was nothing to worry about over there. There are almost no friends who really touch each other. People in big cities are very realistic. It can only be said that Su Ziyu can get along well with others. The only thing that worries him the most is the orange cat, because it has been with the scorpionfish for a long time, and then he was too fat to feed it.

"I hope someone will adopt it. Don't become a stray cat." Su Ziyu murmured.

He patted his **** and stood up. The whip marks on his back have healed a lot, but he still needs a good rest.

The next day.

When he got up, he heard the noise outside, and when he pushed the door, he saw a young man holding a sword. He seemed to be called Lot. It should be the pronunciation. The other person’s eyes were not friendly. Recently, inside the village People's attitude towards him is slowly getting worse, although Su Ziyu did nothing, but these people have increasingly rejected him.

Exclusiveness.

It may be that he has offended someone unintentionally, and the residents in the village sometimes point to him.

"Su." Fortunately, Linna was still very friendly to him. She brought Su Ziyu food and pushed away the young man in front of her. There is no way for the two parties to communicate normally because of language barriers, but Su Ziyu felt that something was going on in the village, something very bad.

Lina didn't teach him swordsmanship today. They set up traps around the village.

There are two villagers watching him outside, and he seems to be restricted in his range of activity again. The young man named Lott looked at him very unfriendly, and Su Ziyu didn’t know the reason. Anyway, it was these two days. Time suddenly became very rude to him. I don't know if it was an illusion. He faintly smelled a **** smell, which was easy to distinguish. It came from the second wooden house in front of him.

Time passes day by day.

Lina comes a lot less often, and her expression is a bit low every time she comes here. The young man named Rot often follows behind and keeps his eyes on Suzi fish, but the man named Ken is very rare. Appearing, once I saw him once in a while it seemed that he was wounded on his arm with a bandage wrapped around it. Su Ziyu didn't know what was going on. He couldn't communicate with these aborigines at all, and his range of activities was restricted to the wooden house.

"You must learn to be patient." Su Ziyu told himself.

He is a person who is good at adapting to the environment. He understands that many incidents are easy to cause trouble, especially when the aborigines are increasingly repelling themselves. Because of the golden hourglass, Su Ziyu may not stay in this world for long. To be honest, the people here are a bit fierce, and he doesn't want any accidents at this time. To be honest, he is also very confused now, not knowing what he should do, and every day after he recovers, he studies the mysterious golden hourglass, trying to understand the extremely complicated and complicated runes printed on it.

But he has gained very little, because it is an extremely energy-intensive thing.

However, his gains are not without it. He found a rune similar to a scale, with some special marks on it. The difference from the encounter with the snake man is that he found an extra rune mark on it. This is most likely the world coordinates recorded by the golden hourglass, and a certain symbol in it may represent the position of the earth.

Night fell.

Su Ziyu's injury has almost recovered, so he goes to bed a little later than usual. He used to go to bed only at 11 or 12 o'clock. This habit has not been completely changed. Because he doesn't have a mobile phone or a computer to play, he can only look at the stars in the sky at this time. When he is bored during the day, he draws a chess board on the ground to play chess with himself.

Sure enough, life on earth is rich and colorful, and the days here are really boring.

As a game developer, he just plays games every day for a while, and here he has almost no entertainment.

"Ah!"

Just when Su Ziyu was about to fall asleep in a daze, a terrible scream suddenly woke him up. The outside suddenly became chaotic. There were waves of footsteps and some panicked and messy voices. Many torches were lit. In the end, he couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and slipped out of his own clothes quietly. Room.
